I'd love to help you with this, but I'm not aware of an hour-long original, as I've only seen the show in syndication.Can anyone tell me exactly which lines are missing in the UK DVD edition for the 'Company Picnic' episode? I've found the scene which is missing, but I'd like to know about the lines of dialogue, too.
The DVD versions run for 21:35 mins (I) and 22:06 (II), and the old video file I have of them has them strung together at 42:50 - minus end credit sequences.
I hope there's still someone around with a full copy.

I just found these relevant quotes from USA Today:
http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/life/television/2002/2002-01-24-malcolm.htm
The Super Bowl script started as an episode that was 10 pages too long for Malcolm's regular half-hour slot (Sundays, 8:30 p.m. ET/PT). When Fox program chief Gail Berman asked if Malcolm had a potential hour-long episode, Boomer expanded the script, which also shows oldest son Francis (Christopher Masterson) in a hockey game with Klum and coaches Terry Bradshaw and Howie Long.
and Internet Movie Database:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0640308/alternateversions
Originally aired as an hour special, this episode has since been split into 2 parts, having certain scenes re-ordered, and the locker room scene in the ice rink is cut.
